"Au bord du vif" | Free Improvisation on classical guitar

[Alan Perros]

Hi there !

I'm currently working on new compositions, coming soon, hopefully... In the meantime, I just dust off an old recording. A free improvisation recorded on the 9th of August 2015. I hope you'll like it !

Recorded with a very cheap 200€ guitar and a zoom Q8.
Audio: normalisation, high/low pass filters on Ardour
Video: KDEnlive and GIMP

I like the impro a lot, I think you are able to pick which chords to insert between solo lines with great taste.

But be careful about the breathing, it's too loud in the recording.

What model of guitar is that?

[Alan Perros]

Thanks !

It's a Ibanez G10-NT, wich isn't produced anymore. Ibanez launched a series of classical guitars (6, 7 and 8-strings) on the market around 2014, but they stopped a couple of years later. Good quality/price ratio but still, it's not a good guitar. ',)

I really enjoyed listening and watching. Your use of harmonics was especially interesting to me.

I also enjoyed your Bach prelude. Very nice.

Hi,

Wonderfully played, you have a great touch! nice melodies intertwined with occasional dissonant chords
